ahamatkaṃ kavaye śiśnathaṃ hathairahaṃ kutsamāvamābhirūtibhiḥ | ahaṃ śuṣṇasya śnathitā vadharyamaṃna yo rara āryaṃ nāma dasyave

With deadly blows I smote Atka for Kavi's sake; I guarded Kutsa well with these saving helps. As Śuṣṇa's slayer I brandished the dart of death: I gave not up the Āryan name to Dasyu foes.
